New data from Barna’s State of Pastors study gives leaders big questions to consider about the future of church leadership.

Today, most pastors are skeptical about the future of church leadership—over seven in 10 agree they’re concerned about the quality of future Christian leaders (78%) and fear the Christian Church will decline because of inadequate leadership (72%).

At the same time, current pastors admit pouring into the next generation of leaders has not been a priority for them (50% agree training and developing the next generation of church leaders is a significant priority for their church).

Bridging this gap will take intentionality.
